COL. BUCKNER'S LECTURE.
A Splendid Talk to Good Sized
Audience.

The lecture of Col Allen Buckner at
Opera Hall, Friday evening of last week,
was listened to by large audience. To
say that the colonel did his subject
justice, is putting the case with extreme
mildness. He had map of portion of
the mountain system in the country
where the battle of Chicamauga was
fought. He told how the Federal army
was taken in there by Rosecrans for the
purpose of giving battle to the forces of
Bragg, and how, once in there, the Fed
eral army must fight their way out or die.
He went on to tell of the wonderful adj
vantages possessed by Bragg in the way
of position, of Bragg's fatal delay, of
Rosecrans turning the Federal army over
to General Thomas, of the latter winning
victory in the very face of defeat, and
being called ever after the "Rock of
Ohicamauga."
Strewed among the eloquent and i'm
pressive passages of the lecture were
many laughable stories.
The lecture closed with brief allusion
to the later movements of the Army of
the Potomac
No admission fee had been charged.
At the close of the lecture, Judge Osborn,
who had presided, called for collection.
About fourteen dollars were raised.
Three dollars were to be paid for. the
use of the hall. Captain Carson, when
the colonel went to pay him, said he
would take only twenty five cents. Said
he: II was with Gordon Granger, whose
forces you mentioned as coming up IN
time to save the day at Chicamauga!"

 A girl friend of Nina Van Zandt tells a Philadelphia reporter that after Miss Van
 Zsndt's fathers failure in business the family moved to Chicago. All that remained of their former af1uence were five pug dogs, the property of Nina, and as she stubbornly re- fused to give them up the appraisers of her fathers assets had omitted them from the schedule of his effects. The girl was won- derfully attached to the pets and as time elapsed and she felt more and more the pinch of poverty her affection for the dogs increas- ed. One day the favorite of the lot was lost. Diligent search, offers of reward and adver- Using were all intellectual in restoring the animal to it's bereaved owner. Miss Van Zandt wrote letter to the Arbeiter- -Zeitung, recounting her sorrow aud bewailing the loss of her greatest pet. August Spies, who was then editor of the paper, published the letter and wrote an amusing editorial in which he made good dealof fun of the young girls love for the pug dog. The editorial gave the incident so much notoriety that it lead to the discovery and restoration of the dog. Miss Van Zsndt was 80 graceful that she went in turn to thank the editor, and that was the first meeting between the doomed anarchist and the woman who is destined to become his tt,ridnHx D

PROGRESS OF A GREAT REFORM

PROGRESS OF A GREAT REFORM.
 The real character of the reform admins tration at Washington is daily becoming more and more apparent. And as it grows plainer the disgust of the honest mugwump increases. One of these queer birds who lives in Baltimore writes to the Civil Service Reformer that the cause both of Cleveland's s nomination and election ''has almost ceased to exist, for the enthusiasm and confidence with which he was then supported by those like minded with me have been changed into a profound and general disap- pointment and distrust." s'Mr. Cleveland's acts and omissions" he says, F'have been too eloquent for them to accept excuses which grow constantly more and more gauzy." The letter continues: Our brethren of New York and Massachusetts and Connecticut, of New Jersey and Rhode Island, know enough to disgust them, but very far from the whole story; let them hear the truth, not only about Higgins and Thomas, but about Basin and ''Sonny" Mahon, about the sacrifice of Curran and the removal of Coombs, about the sham resignation of Trust and the open retention of Bacharach and W,llace Owings; above all, let the direct personal responsibil- ity of the President for all these scandals be proved to them, and the fimsy sophistry by which his apo1ogists seek to shift responsi- bility from him to subordinates whom he still retains, or advisers whom he still con- suits, be mercilessly exposed, and I warrant you there will be something to show for these labors.
 Some of the truth about civil service re- form in Baltimore was told the other day by John K. Cowan, the we'll known lawyer, who said Election after election has been carried by bare-faced fraud. The city's pay roll is gradually assimilating to the police records. Murder, pure and simple, is recognized as political service, to be re- warded in both national, State and munich pal appointments in the persons of trust. Busey, Buchheimer. Koenig, Burke, Kenne- dy and Goodrichi Think of the listI Seven murderersl A host of others known to us all, who have not taken life, but only tried to do so-Owens, Carter, 'Butch" Murphy, Mike Murphy and long line-swell the roll and disgrace our city. A murder is planned and carried out with sensational deliberation, neTeIy Lo supp u OOlG III du lmpOFtdnG WdrO The 'sparty" shows it's hand in the attempt to get rid of the States witnesses made by man high in it's counsels. Nineteen men of criminal record draw pay from the city for their activities in one ward. Twice does Governor Lloyd allow the ballot boxes of this city 0 be footed, and, in spite of the scandal, has third time refused minority representa- tion on the board.
 These scoundrels are the tools of Senator German and his gang. who have apparently secured what they want from the President and are very ''solid" with him. No wonder the mugwumps are disgusted.

The report made by the Democratic smell ing committee to find out how many Repub- licans hold government offices in Massaohu- setts is surprise. It says that there are, all told, out of total number of not less than 4,614 employes 3,s28 or s3 per cent RepubH- cans. This includes the Massachusetts em- ployes in the departments at Washington. In the postoffice service of the State out of 2,120 employees 1,656 are reported as Repub- 1ieans and in nearly all other departments a similar state of affairs is reported. The con- publicans are offensive partisans and ought to be bounced. Of course they had. It Is astonishing that they haven't been.

Gibbs Laid Him Ou this Morning. Continued Tomorrow
The Prohibition Meeting.

Rev. Mr.. Rcasoner made his reply at
the court house last night 10 Hon. lar
nett Gibbs Gnti-prohibition speech de-
livered last Saturday night. From the
prohibition standpoint he handled his
subject logically and reasoned sirongl:
fop his side, mingling religious points
here and there where they would tit
best Taken altogether the speech was
good prohibition argument and
would read ia print very satisfactorily
TO prohibitionists and make the other
fellows roaring mad.
His argument on environment, the
influences of surroundings aud clu-
cation, was especially good, aud he no
doubt convinced his listeners that this
argument for prohibition, alone, was
sufficient to induce the adoption of the
amendment. lIc was several times an
plaudcd; and altogether the lecture
was well received.
AT the close of Mr.. Rcasoner's
speech, Gen. II. NJ Gano, a member of
the State Executive commiitc, ma ie a
few remarks, declaring his heart aud
hand would be in this work, and that
this being a republican form OF gov
ernment the people are responsible for
its laws and their administration,
whether good or bad.
Gen. Gano will soon call mss
meeting Tor Dallas county, when the
Prohibitionists Will organize for the
campaign.
